<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div>Welcome to the last week of July!<br><br></div>The big news from last week was announced on the <a href="https://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/FS_weekly_2013_07_24" target="_blank">weekly conference call</a>: FreeSWITCH 1.2.12 was <a href="http://www.freeswitch.org/node/458" target="_blank">officially released</a>.
This is now the recommended production release of FreeSWITCH. We also
had a simple FreeSWITCH programming how-to on using channel variables
with examples from <a href="http://fisheye.freeswitch.org/changelog/freeswitch.git?cs=01d45ae506f50cdefa9ccfb9c5d08c3b5adbdfec" target="_blank">mod_valet_parking</a> and <a href="http://fisheye.freeswitch.org/changelog/freeswitch.git/?cs=13de330" target="_blank">mod_voicemail</a>.<br>
<br></div>On this week's <a href="https://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/FS_weekly_2013_07_31" target="_blank">conference call</a>
we are glad to have with us long-time FreeSWITCH community member and
code contributor Chris Rienzo. Chris has lots of experience with
handling media for various applications, such as you'd use with <a href="https://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_unimrcp" target="_blank">mod_unimrcp</a>.
This week Chris will be discussing the theme "mod_spandsp - it's not
just for faxing!" <a href="https://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_spandsp">Mod_spandsp</a> makes use of the powerful <a href="http://www.soft-switch.org/">SpanDSP library</a>
and Chris will show us some of the interesting things that this makes
available for FreeSWITCH users. <br>
<br></div>For those of you coming to <a href="http://www.cluecon.com" target="_blank">ClueCon 2013</a>:
we'll see you next week! We are really looking forward to seeing
